Stretch Pencil Skirt

August 28, 2011

I managed to acquire a bunch of striped knit fabric. I loved the color but wasn't sure what to do with it at first. I ended up finding a tutorial for drafting up a basic pencil skirt pattern and putting it together. I decided to try it out in the striped fabric for practice, and it turned out pretty well ;)

The waistband is black elastic. A bit hard to see in the photo.

I should have ironed it, but I was impatient to try it on!

I think I'll try sewing another of these in jersey fabric. It's pretty comfortable, and only took about an hour from start to finish. Check out the fabulous tutorial here.
